Re: Biden Announces Reelection Campaign
It's very funny that you felt like including an unrelated quote just because you wanted to insert a lie that Biden said about how Israel is beloved around the world. Yes, when the president of the United States repeatedly says American Jews are not safe if Israel doesn't exist that's a threat. Appar...

Re: Biden Announces Reelection Campaign
Biden went on Seth Meyers to threaten all american jews that if they dont' support Israel's genocide of the Palestinians that he's going to gencocide them (like the last time he said this a couple months ago). I can't tell if he's never met a Jew who didn't work as a prison guard in Israeli murder f...

NJ is having many conventions, which are often secret ballot and pre decide the primary before the primary and before the people of NJ get a say. This is the normal practice because as I discussed before, possibly in another thread...

Re: Biden Announces Reelection Campaign
The United States has both one of the most flexible policies for granting citizenship and the most tolerant of immigration/absorption into society. Those are good things worth celebrating. This is absolutely dumb as shit and not even close to true. There are limits to how many people can move to th...

Is anyone arguing that Canada needs to change their immigration policy? For reference, they accept 465,000 immigrants per year. Yes, obviously. Canada should accept far more migrants then it does. Obviously. Ultimately, if 'the government' enforces laws that are deeply opposed to the society's conv...

Re: Biden Announces Reelection Campaign
People naturalize pretty quickly, so we'd never get to 15% of people in the US being unnaturalized (idk if that's the right term for it) immigrants. In the US context, naturalization is when they become US citizens, which takes at least a decade and often never no matter what they want. But yes, in...

Re: Biden Announces Reelection Campaign
Historically, about 40% of Americans have felt that there is too much immigration, 25% felt that there should be more, and the remaining 35% feel that it's about right. If immigration increases, the 40% that feel it is too much will continue to feel it is too much; the 35% that feel it is 'about ri...

Oh, tough restrictions on AR-15s are the answer then?

I don't think most people expect that every year will be a real increase in spending power - most people seem to expect a raise that more-or-less keeps up with inflation unless they change jobs or get promoted. I think most people EXPECT that they will get a raise half of inflation in bad inflation...
